Sections 3 and 4 of the representation attached address these policies. There has been an imbalance in strategic spatial planning with growth, mainly housing, weighted to the north, west and east of the City. This contrasts with the rapid growth in research parks located to the south of the City. The Spatial Strategy recognises this problem but does not go far enough to tackle the imbalance between employment growth and new housing.
The proposal by Grosvenor will help to redress this imbalance by promoting 300 new homes in Whittlesford in a highly sustainable location.
